Thinking About Becoming a Zoo PAL sponsor?
The Zoo PAL Program shares with you the joys of of "animal
parenthood" (without the work). You can become personally
involved in the care and feeding of an elephant, gorilla,
lion, penguin, iguana, or even your favorite fish in the Aquarium—whichever
animal best suits your fancy, or your budget.

You
can individually sponsor an animal yourself, or your business,
scout troop, school class or civic organization can develop
that parental bond with a gorilla or a snow leopard. You may
even share in the parenting of larger animals, such as elephants
or giraffes, seals or rhinos, by contributing a smaller donation
to their "food fund." Zoo PAL sponsorships also
make great gifts for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings—or
any holiday! Please note that any
amount can be given for any animal, starting at $20.00.
